A pulpy 1940s serial adventure pitting heroes against a sinister spy plot, driven by brisk pacing, exotic menace, and earnest heroism.

Japanese master spy Daka operates a covert espionage-sabotage organization located in Gotham City's now-deserted Little Tokyo, which turns American scientists into pliable zombies. The great crime-fighters Batman and Robin, with the help of their allies, are in pursuit.
